[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 21796851, member: 73489"]That's what the world runs on. If you want some gold for disaster insurance, I get that. But you can't possibly think that tying up the bulk of your financial assets and net worth in an asset that pays no interest or dividends is sound financial management. It isn't -- it's malpractice, with all due respect. Stocks go up and down. I'm not saying to go out and put 100% into stocks (I'm actually bearish ST right now) but you can get 5% in 1-year Treasury bills with no risk....6% in high-quality corporate bond or bond funds....and 7-8% with modest risk.
